Methodology & Configuration
Scoring Process
  1. Collect Test Data: Gather results from professional tyre tests across multiple publications. Minimum 1 test(s) required.
  2. Normalize Positions: Convert test positions to percentile scores using exponential weighting (factor: 1.2).
  3. Apply Recency Weighting: More recent tests are weighted higher with a decay rate of 0.95.
  4. Incorporate User Reviews: Factor in user review data (minimum 5 reviews). Weight: 15%.
  5. Bayesian Smoothing: Apply Bayesian prior (score: 7, weight: 1.5) to prevent extreme scores with limited data.
  6. Calculate Final Score: Combine all components using normalization factor of 1.1. Max score with limited data: 9.5.

Questions and Answers for the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season

Ask a question
November 27, 2017

I am interested in 19" All Season Tyres, which I am finding difficult to find, as the tyre size is not popular. Which makers for this size, have the 3 peaks symbol. If 'All Season Tyres' don't have the 3 peaks symbol are they still legal in Germany during the winter i.e. do 'All Season Tyres' qualify as Mud & Snow, which I understand is legal during the winter in Germany.

The all season tyre would still need the M+S marking printed on it, which you would need to check for each pattern you are looking at. Depending on what size your wheels are, a full winter tyre like the Continental WinterContact TS850 P might be the best "all season" tyre available, but I'd still recommend switching to real summers whatever tyre you get (as the CrossClimate isn't made in your size)
April 3, 2018

Got myself a used VW Touareg about 6 months ago and now need new boots; I live in the north of England and drive a lot on small roads in the Yorkshire Dales and Lake District really wanted something for all seasons but the choice is somewhat limited due to my tyre size: 275/45 r20 have narrowed it down to Pirelli Scorpion Verde alll season, Goodyear Eagle LS2 & Continental ContiCross Contact LX Sport. The later two aren’t sold as all season but do have the M&S marking. Also possibly General Grabber AT3 but I’dont do that much off road just a few farm tracks and fields. Do you think I’m thinking on the right lines? And any tips/ recommendations? Thanks.

I'm a little out of my depth with these tyres! The Scorpion Verde All Season is a good shout, however don't expect miracles in snow and ice as these aren't "three peak mountain and snowflake symbol" marked.

Review Summary

Based on 65 user reviews

Drivers report mixed results with the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season. Many SUV owners praise its long tread life, quiet ride, stable handling, and competent dry/snow performance, with several high-scoring reviews citing 40-60k+ miles and strong all-weather confidence. However, a substantial minority report poor wet grip (especially roundabouts), increasing noise and roughness as they wear, and occasional comfort harshness; a few experienced early wear or durability issues, particularly on heavier or high-performance vehicles. Overall sentiment is moderately positive but with notable wet-grip and noise/comfort caveats.

Strengths
  • Long tread life
  • Quiet ride (when new)
  • Good dry grip
  • Stable handling
  • Decent snow/light off-road traction
Areas for Improvement
  • Poor wet grip/roundabout confidence
  • Road noise increases with wear
  • Harsh/firm ride
  • Premature/uneven wear on some vehicles

Top 3 Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season Reviews

Given 92% while driving a Ford Mustang (255/40 R19) on mostly motorways for 3,000 spirited miles
I installed these Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season on my Mustang and I'm pleasantly surprised for now.
Dry grip is awesome, when I floor it tire spin is minimal above 4k rpm and cornering doesn't suffer much, coming from Kumho PS71 (UHP summer) there is slight understeer but the Mustang is nose heavy so nothing surprising, I expected worse and unless you push fast it's not noticeable in daily driving. The on-center feel is great and at the same time tramlining which Mustangs suffer from almost disappeared which is miraculous.
Wet grip is much better now, the rear always felt floaty before but it's now planted even during heavy rainfalls (it's spring rn) braking feels good (I also have upgraded Brembo brakes) and only when accelerating/braking over metallic joints or manholes you have to pay attention a bit but this applies to every tire especially in a Mustang.
I'll add details about snow/winter traction in the future when winter comes.
What really surprised me is the noise, the Mustang rides harsh so nothing changed regarding comfort, on the other hand these tires are super quiet, you don't hear them at low/city speeds and during high speeds (up to 200kph) they're quieter than the summer tires I had before. I was expecting a noisy tire considering it's made for SUV with lots of sipes but got the opposite, rides super quiet, Pirelli have always been the quietest riding tires for me and the Scorpion Verde AS is no different.
What I hope will be different than every other Pirelli tire I've had is wear, I managed to get around 30k miles with Michelin CC2, Bridgestone Turanza AS6 while Vredestein Quatrac Pro lasted me a ridiculous 45k miles... I never reached 15k miles with any Pirelli, in particular the Cinturato P7 wore flush to the wear bars before reaching 10k miles (those were OEM not aftermarket). Let's hope the Scorpion Verde AS manages at least 20k miles considering the 600 treadwear rating, we'll see.

Bought 4 for Volvo XC60 doing about 10k miles a year. All of them deformed long before they reach the limit. Had to put patches on two because of slow punctures from stones lodging. I wouldn't recommend them for the price.

These tires was the worst I've ever had. Οn a wet road it was very dangerous. Τhe sign m+s is only typical. I did 24000km (15000mi) and then replaced them.

Given 90% while driving a Nissan X Trail 2.5 petrol (225/65 R17) on a combination of roads for 70,000 easy going miles
I have my 4 tyres fited by Mycar.com.au 5 years ago. No problems at all. I did rotated fews time. Also wheel alignment 2 times.
100k plus for the 4 tyres. Still 20% left at the rear and 25% at the front tyres. Wonderful quality right?
I do have an appointment to fit another set of 4 soon. Recommend to buy.

Given 71% while driving a Ford Mustang (255/40 R19) on mostly motorways for 12,000 spirited miles
update review: DO NOT fit these tires on a RWD like my MUSTANG because they will melt
I had these tires on my Mustang for the last 4 months and did 19tkm in the meanwhile
Everything I said before as for comfort still stands, the tires are super quiet, quieter than Michelin CC2 (A/S), Kumho PS71 (UHP), Vredestein Quatrac Pro (A/S) and Conti ASC2 (A/S) so like every other Pirelli I tried the comfort is unmatched, other manufacturers can't be as comfortable.
Tramlining disappeared entirely (heavy on Mustang) and road imperfections were much much smoother compared to my new Conti ASC2 which makes the Mustang feel like riding a camel over every bump despite the same 2.2 bar (32 psi) tire pressure
Dry grip is awesome almost on par with Michelin CC2, no aquaplaning either, a little bit of fishtailing on dry and a little caution in the wet was required but I drive a Mustang so you should expect it to be tail-happy and unpredictable at times, however the Pirelli was miles ahead of the Kumho and around the same as CC2 even if not quite up there with Vredestein or Continental in wet conditions
THE BIG AND DANGEROUS ISSUE
I just went on vacation driving 5,550km road trip through Europe, I've been on the autobahn (speeds over 200kph) and also through Transalpina and Transfagarasan (the best highway in the world) in Romania with my wife and the Mustang was fully loaded with baggages. Hungary was super hot over 30C, the mountains in Romania were challenging continuos turns and twist with crazy uphill and downhill elevations and in Germany I floored it on every autobahn until the 251khp speed limiter kicked in, THIS CAUSED THE REAR TIRES TO CRACK FROM THE LOAD AND HEAT, lots of small cracks appeared between the treads like they would on a 6+ years old dry rotting tire, except these tires were fitted only 4 months ago and the DOT is 2424 so they're 1 year old tires, they hardened due to all the weight, power and heat, the tread looks "shiny" like plastic and there's cracks between the tread, my phone camera doesn't pick up the details otherwise I would upload an image.
This caused the rear tires to be dangerous and unpredictable, even though I have 7/32 left which is awesome after 19tkm on a Mustang considering I never had a tire last 30tkm, the Pirelli had a potential to reach 40tkm if not for this issue, now the tire treads are hardened up and even 4th gear feels squirrely in the wet, I literally spin the rear tires until I engage 3rd gear when flooring my Mustang in the dry now. I don't even want to talk about roundabouts or emergency braking.
I had to throw out the Pirelli despite having 7/32 tread left because of this, I now installed ASC2 which are louder, less comfortable but at least have plenty more grip even better than Michelin CC2.
As for snow performance I didn't get to try the Pirelli so I can't compare.
A friend has these Pirelli Scorpion Verde AS on a Range Rover and they're excellent, he predicts to reach 80tkm and snow performance is decent (AWD) so these tires are pretty good especially if you prioritize comfort they're great but having a too powerful or heavy car puts too much stress and heat through the tire I guess so use them for chill cruising not performance or high speed conditions

Given 91% while driving a Volvo XC90 B5 (275/40 R21) on a combination of roads for 4,000 spirited miles
I fitted the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season's to my Volvo XC90 as Michelin CrossClimate's weren't available in the size. I live in rurally in Northeast Scotland, where we often get snow from November - March.
My last Volvo XC90 had 17" wheels, and I was able to put CrossClimates on it, but my driveway is at an angle, and as I reverse up it, I also need to turn. No vehicle has managed this when it's has 2+ inches of snow (including previous Skoda Superb 4x4 with the CC's). My current Volvo with the Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season has managed to reverse up the driveway each and every time.
The car and tyres were able to easily travel at 40mph on the snow this morning, met another vehicle coming the opposite direction on a single lane road, I was able to easily stop without any skidding/sliding, reverse back to a passing place, and pull out again once the vehicle passed without issue. Other day, it also easily got up to 50mph on a snow covered single track hill road on the way home, with no loss of grip, also stopped well (was testing to see how good they were!).
The Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season doesn't grip as well in wet weather no the bends, but to be fair the XC90 isn't designed for spirited driving, in the rain, around B road bends!

Given 67% while driving a Land Rover Range Rover Sport (275/40 R22) on mostly town for 42,000 average miles
Having owned Pirelli’s on a previous S4 Audi I wasn’t impressed, Then when buying my 2017 5.0 v8 supercharged Range Rover sport, it came with them fitted from new. The car is now 6 years old, has covered 42000 miles, and I’m now having to replace both front tyres, due to cracking and a split on the inner sidewall on the near side tyre. They are the original tyres date marked 1617, so as far as longevity they’ve lasted well, but I have noticed under heavy breaking and quick steering in put, the car understeers tremendously could be that being 2.2tons doesn’t help. Through the winter though I never had any near misses and on the slushy icy roads not once felt not in control.

Given 88% while driving a Dodge (265/50 R20) on a combination of roads for 1,000 easy going miles
Our new 2023 Dodge Durango R/T AWD came equipped with the Pirellis and I am very impressed. Contrary to what a jeep owner wrote, I feel like the ride they provide is magnificent. We had a 2016 Durango which came with P265/50R20 Goodyears, I think it was - when they wore out I bought Falken Pro G5 from Discount Tire and was pretty happy with them for the price. That is my frame of reference, but I have to say that the 2023 Durango with the Pirellis rides and handles like a dream compared to the 2016. It was good, the new was is superb. I cannot say how much of that difference is the year model and technical improvements and how much is the tire, but so far we love the new car and the tires. We had testdriven an Escalade and I swear the Durango rides just as well and the hemi blows the Escalade out of the water. I cannot see any reason at this point anyhow why I would change tire brands when it comes time for new tires.

The Pirelli Scorpion Verde tyres on my Discovery 5 have lasted less than 24,000 miles. Very poor in my opinion.

Mercedes Benz GLC 300 4MATIC (235/55 R19) on mostly town for 20 easy going miles
These tires (run flat version) were worn out at 10,000 miles. I had them rotated every season at the dealer. at 10,000 miles, 2 of the 4 tires are completely worn out while the 2 others are worn out enough that the dealer refuses to put them on. Simply unacceptable. Bad quality is my best guess

Given 74% while driving a Ford Explorer (225/50 R20) on a combination of roads for 60 spirited miles
A good tire and lasted me nearly 60,000 miles. When the treads did get uneven around 60k, the tires did get very loud and almost unbearable. Felt there was some tire tread left but had to replace due to the noise, far too annoying. Overall, it was a pretty good tire, in my opinion, and for most of their life, ran quiet. Could be softer on bumpy roads, drive firm on less than smooth roads. Would buy again at the right price.

Having to replace at just over 13,000 miles. Vehicle and tires are serviced at recommended intervals and kept at recommended inlation. No off-road use. Never had a tire sold with a new Mercedes (2019) loose tread requiring replacement at such low milage and little amount of time.

Given 92% while driving a Volvo XC70 D5 (235/50 R18) on mostly motorways for 100,000 average miles
Have used Scorpion tyres for many years now and have found the all season tyres excellent. Have never managed to break traction, even when giving full throttle on wet road surface. Driven in fresh snow and icy roads without any issues, passing many cars who miserably failed to get anywhere. Overall they might be a little noisy, but my current set of front tyres lasted 60,000 miles and the rears are still going after 100,000 miles!

Given 28% while driving a Land Rover Discovery Sport (245/45 R20) on a combination of roads for 0 average miles
These came on my recent purchase of a Discovery Sport, on the rear. They are fairly new and therefore plenty of tread. I've found them a hard compound and quite harsh and noisy. Grip in the dry seems OK - for what dry weather we've had in the last week or so. But to be honest the wet weather handling is quite shocking! Find I'm having to dither around corners and roundabouts in the wet to stop the back end sliding out and that really shouldn't happen. Last time I had that was when I bought a previous car which came with a cheap wheel a tyre package on where you couldn't even steer it in the rain! It's less than 2 weeks of ownership and I'm looking at replacing the rears for something that will grip the road and be much safer, Would not recommend these at all.
